COiZERCIAL CLUB COMPROMISE PLAN WAS HOT FAVORED
S w Attorneys for the County Pointed Out that the Club ; "Compromise" Was Really Not Any Compromise. (Continued from rage One.) thought the company was trying to "put one over" on the city and county by asking that this proposition be made. ,' Mr. Johnson stated that the matter meant nothing to the attorneys whether they appealed the case or not, but a one of the attorneys he would like to see the matter carried through without a compromise, as the principal involved was much more important than the minor inconvenience the county would be put to by appealing the case. 'Both attorneys for the1 commissioners assured the committee and commissioners that there would be no delay land that the county would be no worse (off even if the decision of Judge Fox :was reversed, and that ,the county still had the right to say where the 'company should place its tracks. The Commercial club committee (then withdrew and' the commissioners (decided to hold another meeting the t frmf gt tha utaaIt with thn a'tnrnpvfl 'for .the commissioners and decide whether or not they should Agree to any com prom I so proposition. "Merry Mary." j ', "Merry Mary," a new song farce and (last summers big success at the WhitIney Opera House, Chicago, will be the attraction at the Gennett theater, Mon'day, Sept. 11. The book was written by Harry Sbeldon White, and the lyrics and music by Jack Kenyon and Hllding Anderaon. This very amusing story tells of a sailor reported lost and collecting his Ing in her son and daughter, flashes out in dashing clothes and is married to an undertaker of bibulous capacl tln Other lnv affairs crnwrl fntn the story but the widow's troubles are the funniest and most Interesting. Her family tries to drown the undertaker when he comes hunting for his bride in an hour, whom he has misplaced but who is difficult to forget or mis lay. Before the undertaker is dried out after his ducking in comes the lost sailor as good as new, with the alarm Ifci information that he has in a moment of forgetfullness married a Fiji Island princess. With these delightful complications carefully worked out, Mr. White has made "Merry' Mary" one of the most dashing and unique stories given the musical stage in some 'time. The dialogue is bright and snappy and the piece .teems over with excrutiatingly funny and cleverly worked out situations. Carefully sandwitched and appropriately placed are over a dozen of the most fascinating and ear teasing melodies to be found in one evening's entertainment, and among the biggest hits of these are "The Land of the Make Believe," "The Summery Girls," Hip, Hip. Hurray. My Wedding Day," "It's Just Your Way," "1 Love No One But You." "Merry Mary," "Experience Will Teach You How" and many others. The acting company includ.es Bertha Gibson, Ruby Rothnour, Marie Welter. Helen , E. , Wilson, Jack Kenyon, Eddy Martyn, Willard Jarvis, C. L. Patterson, Thos. A.

THE MODERN
HEAD DRESS Causes Baldness We Cannot Change the Head Dress, But We Can ' , Prevent Baldness. Up to the time we began to civlize him a bald headed Indian was a thing unknown. Wearing nothing on his head except the covering furnish ed by nature and being a stranger to the use of a hair brush, especially the public one, . the scalp and hair had plenty of ventilation, much sunlight and, hence, a condition favorable to a luxuriant growth of hair existed at all times. It was the adoption of air and light excluding bead , gears and artificial head decorations generally, together with the occasional use of a community hair brush, which gave the dan druff germ tts opportunity. Since this parasite has multiplied to an alarming degree until now there is hardly a person who is not troubled more or less with dandruff and falling hair. Many, to be sure, have passed the worrying stage. Having become chronically bald they realize that nothing is capable of producing natural hair for them. Let these be a warning to all who are experiencing the significant annoyance of dandruff and falling hair. . Dandruff, which is due to a germ, and falling hair can both be overcome by the regular use of Newbro's Herpicide. This wonderful scalp remedy kills the vicious germ which causes dandruff, cleanses the scalp ' and stops the hair from coming out. The destruction of the germ permits the hair to grow naturally and luxuriantly as nature intends. Herpiclde makes the hair bright, snappy, light and fluffy. Ono dollar lze bottles guaranteed.

As his feature attraction he has secured Boutin and Tlllson in "A Yard of of Music." These two young men have one of the best novelty musical acts in vaudeville, playing upon numerous instruments concealed in a novel manner. The Brinkley's, Daisy and David, are two neat colored entertainers presenting a whimsical comedy skiti "Travel On." These two people have an act that is btricly moral and refined and has been meeting with phenomenal success during the past few seasons. Maybelle Wilton, the character change and singing comedienne, is a winsome young lady,, with a beauti ful voice and a charming manner. Her songs are well chosen and well render ed. During the course of her act she makes several very clever character changes; her Interpretations of the old maid's character is said to be a laughing success. Adair & Dahn, novelty tight wire artists, are as much at home on the tight wire as ordinary folks are on the ground. They walk, dance and even serve and eat luncheon while on the wire, finishing with a stunt very seldom attempted by even the best of wire artsts, the barrel jumping stunt. This thrilling and death defying stunt alone is worth the price of admission. The Murrayscope with the first run comedy film concludes the performance. FAMOUS qOODWOOD. Something About a Historio English Rsce Course. The Goodwood race course Is quite unique: It 's a long way from a station nnd is hot near any town, says the London Tatler. It is on a hill the top of which Is shaped like a horseshoe, the space between the two horns being represented by a deep ravine. The course runs round the horseshoe, the start being at the end of one horn and the finish at the end of the other. The result of this is that the equestrians who on 'other courses contrive to see both start and finish ' by the simple process of riding across while the race Is in progress cannot do so at Goodwood. They must elect which they will see and remain there. On the other band, the course is very easy to follow with glasses. The races as an institution are comparatively modern, but there must have been hunt races and matches on this course since the days of William III., when we bear of the Goodwood hunt as in existence. In 1SOO. however, the then Duke of Richmond made a new course, which is practically the present one. In 1S01 the course was completed, and in order to celebrate this a regular meetiug was got up by the duke with the assistance of tbe hunt and some officers of the Sussex militia and yeomanry, and prizes to tbe value of about 1,000 were put up. This meant a good sum In those days. This was tbe first Goodwood meeting of Importance, and from that year it becauie an annual event. Microscopic Measurement. The measurement of microscopic ob jects Is done by rulings on glass, which are produced by wonderfully delicate machines. These rulings are constructed so as to accurately divide an inch or any other unit of measurement Into any desired number of parts as. for Instance, one one-hundredth of an inch or one one-thousandth of an inch or even one tenthousandth of an inch. The finest rul ings thus far produced by any of the machines are at tbe rate of something like 200.000 to the inch. Some idea ot the closeness of the ruled lines can te obtained from considering that a thon sand such lines would occupy only the apace included in the thickness of a sheet of ordinary writing paper.

WEAK RESISTANCE BY THE RAILWAYS WTien the Interstate Commerce Commission Issues Any , Ultimatum. BY SIDNEY ESPEY. WASHINGTON, Sept. 9. Little resistance is made by the railroads when the Interstate Commerce Commission Issues some general order concerning the operation of the roads, or makes it imperative that they shall observe working hours for their employes according to the hours of labor law. Much of the bitterness that existed in former times between the . railroads and government regulation through the Interstate Commerce Commission has ceased. Decisions of the United States Supreme Court have had a' great deal to do with bringing this about. The tendency of these decisions is strongly in the direction of the proposition that interstate railroads must in. all substantial respects be subject, to one power. The court now manifests a
more decided tendency than in former years to hold that regulation of interstate commerce falls within the power of the commission. Simplifies Problem. The stand which the supreme court has taken has simplified the railroad problem to a great extent in this country. By setting up that congress, rather than the states, has the right to regulate the railroads, it has made one rule to govern all the railroads in the country. If it were left to each state to regulate interstate commerce there would be no ' uniformity and what was legal in one state might be illegal in a neighboring state. Each state would have a plan of regulation probably different from any other. ; In some states such ' drastic legislation would be enacted that it would be harmful to the roads. In others prac tically no steps would be taken to remedy existing evils. Even the most ardent supporters of the state rights theory do not dispute the right of congress to regulate interstate commerce, but congress does not presume to take away from the states the right to regulate railroads operat ing within their boundaries. The supreme court has held several of the rate laws passed by state legislatures valid, ' and the railroads have been forced to comply. Some of the states have made little use of their power, and, others have made too much use of their power, according to the roads. Since the supreme court has established the ruling that congress is not overstepping its prerogatives in regulating the railroads, the railroad problem has lost much of its seriousness. Dangerous Proposition. . Several years ago the problem of the railroads loomed up as a danger ous thing to tackle. The railroads, by federal aid, had grown until they had almost unlimited power. It was in their power to make or destroy a community at their pleasure. If a certain section of the country incurred their displeasure, it was not long before the community began to feel the wrath of the railroads. All that was necessary for .the aailroads to do was to make a discrimination of rates in favor of some nearby section, and it was not long before the offending section found itself cut off from the commercial world. Nor were the roads slow in ' making use of their power. Things came to such a pass that congress was forced to act. - The first efforts of congress to regulate the railroads were bitterly fought by the roads. Public clamor against the railroads was so loud that congress took encouragement and became bolder. The Interstate Commerce Commission was established, and it has gradually worked up to its present powers. The railroad's today recognize its authority, and offer no resistance to its rulings. Today the commission holds a firm hand over the railroads and has allayed the cry of government ownership if there is proper and effec tive government regulation. The gov ernment thus escaped the responsi bility of the operation of the roads, and enormous expenditure necessary to acquire them, , " State acts and regulations prescribing maximum charges for the transportation of passengers and freight have caused much xt the litigation- between the railroads and the states and have f requentl y been declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court, on the FREE-TO -THE A New Horn Cur That Anyone Can Use Without Operation, Pain, Danger or Loss of Time.

ground that the charges prescribed were so low as to be confiscatory under the fourteenth amendment of the Constitution which provides that none shall be deprived of life or property without due process of law. It has been held that such acts deprive the railroads of a fair return on v the amount of capital invested. Must Go Further. It is the contention of one school of lawyers in this country that the courts must ultimately go farther and hold that under the Constitution of the United States, as under the common law of England, the railroads cannot be deprived by legislation of just and reasonable compensation for transportation service rendered.. Small profits will not justify, however, greater charges, and greater profits will not always justify a smaller charge being made by governmental regulation. This1 school contends that the right given to the railways by the present interstate commerce law to make a reasonable charge for each service performed is but the expression of the constitutional right. In some instances the legislation of the States has been so drastic that it
has not been upheld by the courts, i Seme states have gone so far as to try to prevent the testing in the courts i of the constitutionality of state acts. This has been the case in Minnesota, North Carolina, Alabama, Arkansas, and Missouri. One of the most recent important cases to be decided was in Minnesota. The legislature of that state passed a law cutting the rates practically onethird. The state Supreme court held i that this was unconstitutional. Should ! this decision be upheld by the United Etates Supreme court, it would in ef fect destroy the right exercised by the States in fixing transportation charges. While it is evident that civil authorities will not perrat the railroads to oppress the public, it is also evident that they do not intend that the railroads shall be deprived ' of a fair return on the vast amount of capital which they have invested. This sense of fairness has done much to diminish the animosity that, existed on the part of railroads toward government regulation. They are confident that they will be treated fairly by the government. When Beecher "Hollered." Coming home from tbe morning service one Sunday Dr. Beecher threw himself on a lounge and said in a tone of deep dejection. "I believe that was the worst sermon I ever preached."

LYIIC1IG TALK IS RENEWED III LIIICOLII Girl, Who Was Tarred and Feathered, Under Constant Care Physician. (National News Association) LINCOLN. Kas., Sept. 9. Miss Mary Chamberlain, who was tarred and feathered by a gang of young men several nights ago. is critically ill at her home here and talk of a lynching over the attack was renewed today. . The young girl is on the verge of a nervous breakdown and has been constantly in the care of a physician. A new development in the scandal came today when threats of lawsuits and violence were made against the men who informed newspapers of the affair. Authorities today said several other young men would be sent to jail as a result of the attack and that the whole business would be thoroughly aired in, the criminal courts. Three persons already have been sentenced to jail and five others are out on bonds. Miss Chamberlain, while driving with Edward Rickert, was set upon by a crowd of young men of Beverly and stripped of her clothing. The assailants took turns taring and feathering her. Rickert was arrested and sent
to jail for a year. Servia's "Death Mask" Stamps. The famous "death, mask" stamps ol Servia were a special'series issued tc commemorate King Peter's coronation He It was who In 1904 ascended the throne left vacant by tbe assassination of King Alexander and Queen Draga The central portion of the design con sists of two heads, sse, that of Peter, being placed slightly to the right ol the other, that the founder of toe Karageorgeritch dynasty in such e way as to show tbe whole of tbe on and the profile of the other. It is a grim coincidence that when the stamp Is inverted a human face can be easily discerned, which is supposed by many to bear a distinct resemblance to that of the murdered king. How to Remove A . Bad Complexion (From London Fashions) Cosmetics , can never really help a poor complexion; often they are positively harmful. The sensible, rational way is to actually remove the thin veil of stifling, half-dead scarf skin from the face and give the fresh, vigorous and beautiful young skin underneath a chance to show itself and to breathe. ; , This is best done 'in a very simple way, by merely applying mercolized wax at night, like cold cream, and washing it off in the morning. Good mercolized wax can be obtained from any well stocked druggist. It absorbs the disfiguring cuticle gradually and harmlessly, leaving a brilliant natural complexion. Of course this also takes with it all such facial blemishes as red blotches, tan, moth patches, sallowness, liver spots, pimples, etc. As a freckle remover apd general complexion beautifier this oldfashioned remedy is unequaled.
